第一部分 听力（共两节，满分 30 分）(略)

第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）

第一节（共15小题：每小题2分，满分30分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

“To educate a girl is to educate a thousand people,” says Maimouna Samaké, a mother of six children (including five girls). “If you put one seed in the ground and rain comes, it will grow to produce many seeds.”

Samaké, one of 2,000 residents, lives in a small village, Sounkala, one of the world’s poorest countries. Now she has a chance to see this wish come true thanks to Build On, an American non-profit organization that is building a school in her community.

For 17 years, Build On has been sending American high school students overseas to create schools in places where literacy (文化) and formal education are usually out of reach. The organization has built about 300 schools in Mali, Malawi, Nepal, Senegal, Nicaragua and Haiti. Its goal is to get young Americans in mostly urban areas to get involved in education. At the same time, it can bring literacy to children and adults in poor villages in the developing world.

Sounkala’s current school only has about 70 children; mud floors, poor lighting, few desks and an absence of books mean that the school is not the most ideal learning environment. Therefore, they certainly could use Build On’s help.

Samaké hasn’t been to school, but she wants a better future for her five daughters, including Ramatou, 12, and Mariam, 10. “When a woman attends school, she will teach what she learns to her children,” said Ramatou, who wants to become a doctor. “She will also know how to take better care of her family.”

Build On tries to build schools for grades one to three. If things go well over those three years, they return to help build another school for grades four to six, and then set up evening adult literacy classes.

Ramatou and Mariam will not learn inside the walls of Build On school since they are already in the sixth grade, but Samaké hopes that they will be able to attend evening classes to continue learning.

21. Which of the following about Build On is NOT mentioned in the text?

A. Its history.    B. Its goal. C. Its approach.    D. Its sources of funding.

22. According to the text, Build On is most likely to help a school __________.

A. in a village in a developed country

B. in an urban area in a developing country

C. in a rural area in a developing country

D. in an earthquake-stricken area in a developed country

23. What do we know about Samaké and her family?

A. Samaké only has daughters. B. Samaké is well-educated.   

C. Ramatou is a doctor.    D. Mariam is in the sixth grade.

24. The text mainly tells us about __________.

A. people’s education conditions in poor areas   

B. a woman’s dream of going to school

C. an organization that helps build schools for people in poor areas    

D. Build On’s great contributions to education

B

If you need to spend time on the road, it's important to find ways to keep safe on your feet. Don't suppose it's your right of way. Yes, you might be crossing at the right place, at the right time, within the crosswalk area, but you are still exposed to danger. It could be a distracted driver, or a cyclist with a loose sense of traffic rules, so you could still get hurt. You can be in the right legally, but that won't be much help when you're in the hospital.

Follow pedestrian(行人) signals. Just as drivers aren't supposed to speed up to beat a light when crossing through an intersection, pedestrians need to take the same care when obeying their own signals. If the hand is flashing and the countdown is into single digits (数字), stay where you are. Trying to outrun the flashing hand is unsafe, especially as cars try to clear the intersection before the light turns red.

Give drivers enough time to stop when crossing. Don't suppose that drivers will jam on their brakes when you hit the crosswalk signals. Some provinces, such as Alberta, issue（发出）a ticket if you don't give drivers enough time to brake.

Cross quickly. Once you've followed all of the other rules, and it is safe to cross the street, don't then just wander along in front of six lanes (车道) of traffic. There's no need to run or jog, but respect the drivers who respected you enough to stop for you.

25. Who is the text intended for?

A. Drivers     B. Cyclists C. Police     D. Pedestrians

26. What does the underlined word "distracted" in Paragraph 1 mean?

A. Considerate    B. Strange C. Kind-hearted    D. Absent-minded

27. In what case would pedestrians in Alberta be fined?

A. Racing against time with drivers     B. Following crosswalk signals

C. Crossing the crosswalk area     D. Walking outside six lanes．

28. What can be a suitable title for the text?

A. Rules for Traffic Police     B. Tips to Keep Safe on Your Feet

C. Things Every Driver Should Know     D. Signals for Both Pedestrians and Drivers

C

EP Portable Heater

We all know that the cost of heating our homes will continue to be a significant burden on the family budget. Now millions of people are saving on their heating bills with the EP portable heater. With over one million satisfied customers around the world, the new EP heats better and faster, saves more on heating bills, and runs almost silent.

The EP has no exposed heating parts that can cause a fire. The outside of the EP only gets warm to the touch so that it will not burn children or pets.

The EP will not reduce oxygen in the room. With other heaters, you’ll notice that you get sleepy when the heat comes on because they are burning up oxygen.

The advanced EP also heats the room evenly, wall to wall and floor to ceiling. It comfortably covers an area up to 350 square feet. Other heaters heat rooms unevenly with most of the heat concentrated to the center of the room. And they only heat an area a few feet around the heater. With the EP, the temperature will not vary in any part of the room.

The EP comes with a 3-year warranty (保修) and a 60-day, no questions asked, satisfaction guarantee. If you are not totally satisfied, return it at our expense and your money will be given back to you.

Now we have a special offer for 10 days, during which you can enjoy a half price discount and a free delivery. If you order after that, we reserve the right to either accept or reject order requests at the discounted price.

Each year more than 2,500 people die and 12,600 are injured in home fires just in the United States, with direct property（财产）loss because of home fires at about $7.3 billion every year. Every day Americans experience the horror of fires, but most people don’t understand fires.

To protect yourself, it is important to learn something about home fires.

In less than 30 seconds a small flame can get completely out of control and turn into a major fire. It only takes minutes for thick black smoke to fill a house or for it to be in flames. Most deadly fires occur in the home when people are asleep. If you realize a fire, you won’t have time to take valuables because the fire spreads too quickly and the smoke is too thick. The fire uses up the oxygen you need and produces smoke and poisonous gases that kill. Breathing even small amounts of smoke and toxic gases can make you tired and sleepy, and short of breath. The smoke can cause you to be a deep sleeper before the flames reach your door. You may not wake up in time to escape.

Room temperatures in a fire can be 100 degrees at floor level and rise to 600 degrees at eye level. Breathing in this super-hot air will burn your lungs. It can melt clothes to your skin. In five minutes, a room can get so hot that everything in it starts to burn at once.

Fires are bright at first, but quickly produce black smoke and complete darkness. If you wake up to a fire you may be blinded, confused about where you are or which direction you should go and unable to find your way around the home you’ve lived in for years.

Only when we know the true nature of fires can we prepare our families and ourselves.

32. How does the first paragraph develop?

A. By raising questions. B. By giving examples.

C. By expressing opinions. D. By listing reasons.

33. What can we infer from the third paragraph?

A. It is necessary to escape in time.

B. It is important to find poisonous gases.

C. It is impossible to keep away from smoke.

D. It is dangerous to sleep away from the door.

34. How does black smoke trouble us?

A. Getting us lose our ways. B. Making our faces turn black.

C. Causing us to feel hopeless. D. Forcing us to walk around the home.

35. What is the passage mainly telling us?

A. Different processes of home fires. B. Some basic knowledge of home fires.

C. Great damage of them fires in the USA. D. Some good ways to prevent home fires.

第二节 （共 5 小题，每小题 2 分，满分 10 分）

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 (E涂AB；F涂AC；G涂AD)   

Eyesight plays a very important role in our daily life. Every waking moment, the eyes are working to see the world around us. Over forty percent of Americans worry about losing eyesight, but it's easy to include steps into our daily life to ensure healthy eyes. Here are five suggestions for a lifetime of healthy eyesight:

u Schedule yearly exams.   36  Experts advise parents to bring babies 6 to 12 months of age to the doctor for a careful check. The good news is that millions of children now can have yearly eye exams and following treatment, including eyeglasses.

u Protect against UV rays (紫外线). Long-term stay in the sun creates risk to your eyes. No matter what the season is, it's extremely important to wear sunglasses.   37  

u    38    Two-thirds of Americans spend up to seven hours a day using computers or other digital (数字的)products. This frequent eye activity increases the risk for eye tiredness. Experts recommend （建议）that people practice the 20/20/20 rule: every 20 minutes, take a 20-second break and look at something 20 feet away.

u   39   As part of a healthy diet, eat more fruits and vegetables each day. Vitamins  C and E help protect eyesight and promote eye health.

u Practice safe wear and care of contact lenses(隐形眼镜). Many Americans use contact lenses to improve their eyesight. While some follow the medical guidance for wearing contact lenses, many are breaking the rules and putting their eyesight at risk.   40  Otherwise, you may have problems such as red eyes, pain in the eyes, or a more serious condition.

A. Have your eyes checked as early as possible.

B. Give your eyes a break.

C. Parents usually don’t care about their own eyesight.

D. They can properly protect your eyes.

E. Stay in good shape by taking more vitamins.

F. Always follow the doctor’s advice for appropriate(恰当的)wear.

G. Eat your greens.

That has been my own experience, either. When I first started at high school, I seldom passed my exams, so I never prepared well. Later, my teacher, Mr. Black, advised me plan everything in advance.
